There Seems to Be NoEnd

to the constant succession of
new styles, and new ideas in
the manufacture Of corsets.
These endeavors have re-
suited in a marked advance
Of the standard Of general
excellence. All acknowl-
edge the common aim to be
the combination Of artistic
outline with scientific con-
struction; so that the law Of
beauty should not be violated
on the one hand nor that Of
anatomy on the other.
The variation Of human
forms makes it impossible to
make one style of corsets to
fit all bodies equally well.
Recognizing this fact we
selected the 81. {. Corset" /"
as being scientifically nearer
! perfection than any other
make, and had them made
in different lengths Of busts,
otherwise equally propor-
toned, in order to meet the
requirements Of both the
slender and corpulent bodies.
The steady growth in pop
ular favor of these corsets
during the past six years is
substantial evidence that they
have merit, and give entire
satisfaction and we would
mention further that many
of our customers acknowl-
edge they can wear no other
! with equal comfort.
: We do not conhne our
. stock to this corset for the
r reason, as intimated above,
that a shape which may fiji
one will not necessarily suit
g all; consequently, as all cor
sets have more or less merit
we Ressp nearly all the reput
able qualities and shapes
hanging in price from soc to
$4.ST per pair. -
We wifi add that here you ARA reason
ably sure Of Securing satisfactory NJ, G at
